It can be appropriately claimed that the Mauryan administration system, though monarchical, was sufficient because it had the privilege of possessing successful administrators such as Chandragupta Maurya, Bindusara Maurya and Ashoka. The King, as the supreme and sovereign authority of the Mauryan Empire, had the supreme executive, legislative and judicial powers and functions in the administration.

It was the responsibility of the Mauryan King, as the head of the executive, to maintain social order by punishing guilty. He was also accountable for the safety and security of his kingdom. Protecting the life and property of his subjects (people of the kingdom) was also the part of his duty.

As the head of the administration the king formulated the general lines of policy which his subordinate officers were bound to follow. He selected ministers and other officers of the royal administration.

As the head of the judicial department, it was the duty of the Mauryan king to ensure justice to the people and rectify their grievances. However, the vastness of the Mauryan Empire restrained the king from personally settling all the cases himself. But as his was the final court of appeal he issued final judgement.
